Matt French is in Japan promoting the release of the first issue of Volcomics. He collaborated on the cover with Jim Phillips, who you know as the creator of some of those original Bones Brigade skateboard art pieces.

Matt is the art director behind the Sentimental Values snowboard project by Funner Films. He's is shown here examining his art piece for the Sentimental Values cover. Matt will be spending the weekend getting mobbed by crowds of Japanese admirers in Tokyo along with fellow artist Jamie Lynn.

Catch The Vapors...bro.

Standard Films released their teaser for "Catch the Vapors" to TWSnow. It takes some big cajones to release your teaser exclusively to the blood thirsty wolves that lurk on the transworld website. As should be expected, the reviews are mixed. I would listen to this guy....

"At 5:14 PM super smart said: they shouldve kept calling them "TB" movies. and the music in their videos usually sucks. other than that though standard films is definitely one of the sickest production companies out there. the three videos ive got on my list to buy next year are "picture this", "keep talkin" and now "catch the vapors" probably get whiteout films video too and maybe "sentimental values" from a small production company called funner films based out of mt. baker. one of the only small production companies that still gets gnarly!"

Indeed, you are super smart.

Thanks Brain Premiere

It looks like it is going to live up to my expectations...dinosaurs coming back, on Christmas day.

Coldfocus Productions and Block 10 premiere the new teaser for "Tasty Water". This is a Finnish-Italian collaboration here folks, be afraid. (16 again, holy cow!)


Tyler Mcleod is a cinematographer. And a darn good one! That's what justin eeles and pierre minhondo think anyway. Tyler was awarded 1st prize in the TWS GTS Video Contest. Here is his entry. He is also putting a little video together with some homies called "Noise, noise, noise", and I like the looks of it.

Oh yea. Did you see the new teaser for Funner's "Sentimental Values"? Exquisite.
